NSV - walking upstairs!

My first NSV! - usually I don't take anything upstairs because I need to hang onto the side and haul myself upstairs gasping as I go! My first NSV is walking upstairs with arms full of a pile of washing and not having to cling onto the rail to struggle up there! Massive small victory for me. The gym is paying off!

    well done!
    I am at work today, 5 floors up! Was going to have lunch break at desk. Decided to briskly walk down stairs, then go straight back up - 120 stairs each way! Have not tried to leave my desk chair since though and may fall over once try to stand!

    Hooray for YOU!!!!!!!!!!

    NSV like these are great reminders when we *doubt* ourselves- "am I REALLY changing?"

    Lock this one away in your mind....

    well done keep it up. I work in a high raised building and I try to do the stairs as often as possible - I'm currently working on the 8th floor and have yet to do all of them, but I'll get there just takes time.

    That is so good - I long for the time when I can get to the top floor of our 3 storey house without being out of breath! Now you can remember this feeling each time you go upstairs, and feel so proud of how far you've come!
